Again, I would ask my colleagues to vote ``no'' on this amendment. We have heard from this side not just the content of this amendment being sort of out of whack with reality, but also when we consider whether or not it's necessary to commit a case, this is not a necessary amendment given the provisions that are already in H.R. 1960.

The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the ayes appeared to have it.
